jarnosflocculant, well, fancontrol is not even installed in default Xubuntu system.13:05
xubuntu76wxubuntu instal 4 hours13:52
jarnosI restarted my xubuntu 15.10 recently and now the splash screen tells: "Press Ctrl-C to cancel file system checks in progress." I have an SSD in the notebook, so I wonder how long such check may take. There is no indication of progress.14:01

fsociety[00]datI want to install Xubuntu Core via mini.iso but I remember that installer does not show tasksel to select anything and it installs only minimal system. I use it in expert mode.16:14
fsociety[00]datI don't want to install it like " sudo apt-get install xubuntu-core^ "16:15
krytarikfsociety[00]dat: "download the mini.iso, install, and when prompted, install the Xubuntu minimal installation task" - no?16:20
fsociety[00]datkrytarik: tasksel does not prompt anything. It skips to ask my choose and installs only text based core system.16:22

krytarikxubuntu95d: What are you trying to ask?17:49
xubuntu17w<krytarik>: i resently installed 14.04 LTS and in the begin it worked. what is Vivid HWE stack?17:51
krytarik!hwe17:52
ubottuThe Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack17:52
krytarikInstalled by default then.17:52
krytarikxubuntu17w: Tried an earlier kernel listed in the boot menu yet?17:53
xubuntu17w<krytarik>: no, did not try a nother kernel. i think there are two listed.../17:53
krytarikxubuntu17w: They'd be listed under a submenu called "Advanced options for Ubuntu".17:58
xubuntu17wkrytarik: if that works, do i have to boot every time on that kernel?17:59
krytarikUntil any later kernel version works for again, yes.17:59
krytarik+ you18:00

Kris1970Unable to select sound settings in system tray, can anyone advise?19:52
function9xKris1970: more detail please19:53
Kris1970hi function 9x: when i click on the sytem tray icon for the sound a menu pops up, at the bottom is the sound settings, clicking that should i believe open ths sound settings but it does nothing. this is on Xubuntu 15.1019:56
function9xok19:57
function9xanything in the logs?19:57
Kris1970Good question, how would i check that? Never done that before!19:58
function9xKris1970: cat /var/log/syslog is a good start19:58
xubuntu95dabout last question19:58
xubuntu95dit is the error: E:Type 'sudo' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list, E:The list of sources could not be read., E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened19:58
function9xKris1970: or tail -f /var/log/syslog19:59
xubuntu95dafter nano command19:59
xubuntu95dhow can I modify manually /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list??what have I write?19:59
flocculantxubuntu95d: probably just need to edit line 1, but to make sure run cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list|pastebinit19:59
flocculantthen let us have the url you'll get20:00
function9xKris1970: after you run tail, try clicking on your sound settings and see if anything pops up on syslog20:00
xubuntu95ddone20:01
xubuntu95dnow?20:01
xubuntu95d i wrote "cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list|pastebinit20:01
flocculantxubuntu95d: you've not done ... what's the url?20:01

xubuntu95dhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/13518459/20:03
flocculantheh20:03
flocculantok so that's no use at all20:03
Kris1970OK, i opened the log and i also typed the command in the terminal, nothing new appeared when i tried to access the sound settings via the system tray icon though.20:03
flocculantxubuntu95d: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list20:03
flocculantxubuntu95d: that'll remove that useless source list, then you can go back to wherever you found this source and have another go20:04
function9xKris1970: ok20:04
xubuntu95ddone20:04
function9xKris1970: pastebin your syslog && dmesg20:05
xubuntu95dand now?20:05
flocculantxubuntu95d: read what I told you20:05
xubuntu95dwonderfull20:05
xubuntu95dmany thanks20:05
flocculantKris1970: if pavucontrol's not starting - do you have it? try running from a terminal20:06
flocculantKris1970: you could also try restarting the panel Alt+F2 xfce4-panel --restart then launch20:06

xubuntu95dthe problem is ubuntu software center that show error20:09
flocculantno20:09
xubuntu95dnow is runnig20:09
flocculantxubuntu95d: that's the outcome of you building that source list wrong :)20:09
Kris1970Sorry, pavucontrol appears to be running and i've restarted the panel a few times now, still no joy20:10
xubuntu95dok20:10
flocculantKris1970: k - just thought I'd check20:10
flocculanttry reinstalling indicator-sound perhaps20:10

flocculantxubuntu95d: what are you reading that tells you to do that?20:12
xubuntu95dabout update-manager pack20:13
Kris1970flocculant: not sure how to do that, selected properties and can only find option to hide not remove or add.20:15
flocculantKris1970: I meant actually reinstall the package, sudo apt-get install --reinstall indicator-sound20:18
flocculantxubuntu95d: that makes no sense - what is making you redo the file causing the error - what are information are you following?20:19
flocculantKris1970: also as far as logs go you might have something in .cache/upstart20:21
Kris1970flocculant:  comes back with: Command line option --reinstall is not understood, when i do that.20:22
flocculantKris1970: two -'s ?20:23
Kris1970flocculant: in the .cache/upstart log it states: unable to launch sound settings: Failed to execute child process "gnome-control-center" (No such file or directory)20:24
xubuntu95dI can't  download software update20:24
flocculantxubuntu95d: if you have the same error after you rm'd the source list - why did you add it back? especially when you knew it was wrong?20:25
flocculantxubuntu95d: again - what are you using for the information?20:26
flocculantKris1970: mmm - well that's odd.20:27
flocculantKris1970: and this is a real xubuntu install? not something else with xubuntu or xfce added?20:27
Kris1970flocculant: No, it's a clean install of Xubuntu 15.1020:28
flocculantdid you retry reinstalling it with yet?20:30
flocculants/with two -'s before reinstall20:31
Kris1970Do you mean re-installing 'gnome-control-centre'?20:31
flocculantKris1970: sudo apt-get install --reinstall indicator-sound20:34
Kris1970flocculant: Got you, reinstalled indicator-sound still nothing, restarted panel afterwards, still no luck.  Thought i'd try to install the gnome-control-center but all that did was bring up a partial ubuntu settings menu, that oddly did not include sound!20:39
flocculantKris1970: ok - not at all sure what's going on there20:40
flocculantKris1970: it shouldn't be wanting that installed20:40
Kris1970it's odd, i take it no one else has had the same problem with 15.10?20:42
flocculantnot seen or heard of this20:42
Kris1970oh well, it's not a deal breaker, just like things to do what they state on the can, if you know what i mean?20:45
flocculantyea for usre20:48
flocculantyou can report it - someone else might be able to confirm20:48
flocculantKris1970: if you're wanting to you could remove indicator-sound and install xfce4-soundmenu-plugin which is something we're low-level testing with20:49
flocculantKris1970: can you  echo $DESKTOP_SESSION  in a terminal20:50
Kris1970flocculant: that terminal command returns: xfce20:51
flocculantright20:52
Unit193Kris1970: That's your problem, you're using the Xfce session and not actually Xubuntu.20:52
flocculantshould be xubuntu20:52
function9xmine says xubuntu20:52
flocculantfunction9x: yep - it should :)20:53
* flocculant can never remember which bits to delete when logged out - Unit193 might :)20:54
Kris1970How did that happen ? How do i change it?20:54
Unit193indicator-sound checks for 'xubuntu' or 'ubuntustudio' first and uses pavucontrol if found, then mate and mate-volume-control, then unity and checks that unity-control-center is in the path using 'unity-control-center sound' if both are accurate, then lastly just goes with 'gnome-control-center sound'20:54

KPxubuntu 15.1021:24
flocculantKP: hang on21:24
flocculantyou could only choose xfce before logging in?21:24
KPcorrect, i selected the session icon and the only option was xfce21:25

KPunit193: sorry, tried again and got - xubuntu-default-settings: /usr/share/xsessions/xubuntu.desktop21:35
function9xKP: do you have the link to the xubuntu iso, that you have currently installed21:37
KPfunction9x:  sorry, pretty sure i just downloaded the iso from the xubuntu website, although when i look now i only see the the torrents available for 15.10 64bit.21:44
KPgoing to try login in again and going to vtl.21:54
KPGuys!!  logged out and tried the session icon again but this time there were two options, xfce and xubuntu, selected xubuntu as you all stated and volia.. the sound settings option in the system tray now works.  Hopefully that's it fixed.21:58
